roasted garlic powder.

i recently made this for the purpose of sous vide cooking. the thing is - when you cook at the low temperatures of sous vide, raw garlic won’t get warm enough to properly cook. thus - you pre-cook the garlic, dehydrate it, and chop it into powder. i tried it out on some filet mignons and it worked great!

this was relatively easy.

i took 10 heads of garlic, cut off the tops, drizzled some olive oil into the tops, turned them upside down on a sheet of foil, baked in the oven @ 425 for about 45 minutes. then took the garlic out of the pods - this was the time consuming part. i then put them in my food dehydrator and left it on for a day. did my house ever smell good! i wish i would have chopped the cloves in half half way though, but it worked almost perfectly. chopped in my food processor and sifted through a sieve and got the quantity you see above. not a lot for 10 heads of garlic, but well worth the effort.
